Cincinnati 49, Illinois 36 (final)

[Steve19]

Clearly, the Illini need a drive right here so that the defense can adjust on the sidelines. If they don't give them time, this is going to get extremely ugly.

Absolutely agree. This isn't a hundred fans or a couple of message board blowhards. This is their players...their university's athletic administration and Cincy's media outlets. This is the jealousy and resentment and outright hatred towards Ohio State that runs just under the surface at The Other State Universities. Thankfully this time around it's manifesting itself in only one school running some football smack. Forty years ago, it took a much more destructive path.

Correct. From top to bottom, its institutionalized Napoleonic syndrome.

 

[OHSportsFan]

Illinois stinks.

 

[NFBuck]

-5 rushing yards for Cinci thus far...

No need to run against that "defense". Porous...just porous Illini team. Looks like I pissed away $v15m. ZOOKED!

 

[Gothmog8]

I switched the channel for a few min. at 7-7 and I see that it is already out of control. 21 points in the 1st Q?
So much for keeping it close...

lets hope for some garbage time magic or dumb luck I'll take either one.

Cinci may be kicking ass but they're still:

this is a fucking joke

 

[Steve19]

Look guys, Cincy has a good quarterback and the Illini don't have a secondary. This was never going to be close but one hoped.

 

[NFBuck]

Man, this really may be zook's last stand. Totally unprepared and getting run off the field. I'd hate to be an illini fan.

[media talking head]Cincinnati over Illinois clearly demonstrates the strength of the Big East and the demise of the Big Ten.[/media talking head]

 

[Steve19]

Let's just see if they can put a drive together now.

 

[FCollinsBuckeye]

Cinci is going to score more than thirty in the first half.

Ohio's BCS Team!!!!111!!!eleventyone!!!

I guess those of us who wagered on the Illini are getting Zooked!

This game would be much closer if Juice didn't suck so much.
